My checkmark button does not beep, and it has no response until it's held down and it just blinks after a few seconds, but never becomes active in programming, any ideas??
First check all fuses. If all are good try a reboot on the receiver. To do that you will have to interrupt the electrical connection to the receiver by disconnecting one of the truck's battery cables for 20-30 mins and then reconnect and try the programming again. If that does not do the trick, you may need to take it to a locksmith for programming. Some batteries plus locations and Ace hardware locations have the programming capability as well. I hope this does the trick for you though.
I found with my 07 rav4 that there's a slight delay from confirming programming and opening the door, to my car actually recognizing the fob. maybe 5 seconds or so, but i started to think I had done it wrong, and then it started working LOL so for anyone else, make sure you give it a few seconds!
This will not work for push to start ignition smart key fobs. Those would require professional programming by a locksmith. This will only program the remote portion for a keyed ignition vehicle.
If you are certain that the car is equipped with the factory remote receiver, and If you still aren't having any luck, you can try rebooting the keyless system by doing an electrical reset on the vehicle. To do this you would simply disconnect one of the car's battery cables for about 15-20 minutes, reconnect and then try the programming again. Sometimes this will solve any 'bugs' that may be keeping the remote from programming.
@@itznotsyprus2120 This programing will only take care of the remote part of the key. You would still have to have the chip in the key professionally programmed by a locksmith in order to start the car with the unit. Once that part is done, you should be able to program the remote portion of the key. Have you had a remote on the car before? If not, confirm the part number with your dealer by calling them with the cars VIN.
I spent 2 hours doing this…and didn’t work pressing the UNLOCK button twice..I press the LOCKED button TWICE and it worked…I have a 2008 Miata…thanks for the video!
Are you getting the initial response from the vehicle, whereas it goes into programming mode? The door locks should cycle lock/unlock on the 8th turn of the key to the ON position. If that does not happen, try to reboot the receiver by doing an electrical reset on your car. Disconnect one of the car battery leads for 30 mins, reconnect, and try the programming again. This will clear any glitches in the electrical system to the remote receiver.
If you have not had a working remote on the car before, call the dealer with your VIN and ask them if the remote receiver is on the vehicle. It may not be equipped. If you have had one before, be sure you have the correct fob and are using the correct instructions. You can ask the dealer for the part number. If you have had a remote before and it is the exact same FCC ID or part number, try rebooting the receiver by unplugging one of your car's battery cables for about 30 mins. Reconnect the car's battery and try the programming again. This will take care of any electrical glitches you may have encountered and the car should enter programming mode. Good Luck! :)
This works for 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 Toyota Corolla remote keyless system You can try this video; however, it is not associated with our website: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-CkYrZSi6vtA.htmlsi=ltOaMoLN2AJORZmV
@@carandtruckremotes thanks! It appears this car i just got a 2000 Corolla ce isn't capable or I guess compatible with a unlock lock key fob. I got it because the seller said the only 1 of the keys is good for the ignition this bad one use for doors so to save key life I was hoping the fob would work but I don't think this vehicle features it
Can't get this to work on my 2003 honda element EX. Have tried many times with no response of the locks at all. My car is a manual, not sure that has any impact. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Hi Jeff, Do you have power door locks on the car? Have you ever had a remote on the car before? There is a possibility that the original owner changed the remote receiver on the vehicle or that you have the wrong remote for the car as well. Try to match the following by calling the dealer with your VIN to be sure the remote you have is compatible: Honda Part Number: 72147-S5T-A01, 72147S5TA01 FCC ID: OUCG8D-344H-A, OUCG8D344HA Frequency: 314 MHz
You have to do both back to back during the same procedure. Once you hold Lock/Unlock on the first remote and it connects, put that one down and pick up the other one and press and hold lock/unlock on the second one Before taking the key out of the ignition. Do not start over at the beginning between each remote. I hope this helps. :)
These programming instructions will not work for smart key fobs or proxy keys. If you have a separate remote start key fob or remote, you most likely have a separate receiver for that on your vehicle and that would require programming with a locksmith.
NOTE: This only works for Keyless entry system function, You can't run the engine, just cranking only.. In my case the MASTER KEY is gone, so cloning/ register the Transponder inside the new replacement key fob won't work. You still need the MASTER KEY first for you to be able cloning the transponder and make your engine run not just for remote keyless entry.
Have you ever had a remote on the car before? Some base models do not have the receiver for the remote. These instructions are only for the remote. They will not program the chip in the key to start the car. That has to be done by a locksmith.
@@carandtruckremotes I am working with the original key fob that used to work with the car. I replaced the battery in the fob, and it hasnt worked since. The red LED lights up when I press any button, and the battery tests good. The fob only has the lock/unlock/panic buttons and it used to work. I cant seem to get the car to enter programming mode..
@@FishinYakker try rebooting the receiver by unplugging one of the car battery cables for about 20-30 mins and then try to get the car into programming mode again. You may just have a bug in the system keeping it from engaging and this may do the trick.
If they are one unit, you will need to have the key portion cut and programmed to start the car by a local locksmith. These instructions are only for the remote portion of the key. The chip in the key must be professionally programmed in order to use the key to start the car.
If you have the flip type key, the chip in the key will require separate programming by a locksmith in order to start the car with the key. If you are trying to program more than one remote to the vehicle, you need to do both back to back during the same procedure (do not start over at the beginning each time). Please email us at support@carandtruckremotes.com if you have further questions.
I would call the dealer with your VIN to obtain the correct part number. There are several different receivers and remotes that can be on the Tundras. All Toyota installed, but some are dealer installed and others factory installed. Once you have the correct part number, you can match it to what you have ordered and make sure it is the correct remote.
Have you had a remote on the car before? Some Honda remotes look the same, are you sure you have the correct remote? If so, you can try to reboot the receiver by disconnecting one of the car battery cables for about 20-30 mins and then reconnect and try the programming again. You can also swing by an auto parts store to test the remote signal to be sure it is working properly. I hope this helps. :)
Normally I tell people to push lock after turning the key to the on position. Just lock. (not either or) Turn key on, press lock, turn key off, turn key on, press lock, turn key off, turn key on, press lock, turn key off, 4th time... turn key on, press lock LOCK (twice quickly) and then turn the key off. Exit the vehicle to test the fob. Try not to lag between steps. If you make a mistake, start the car, turn off they ignition, open and close the door and start fresh. I hope this will help!
@@carandtruckremotes I just got the car a couple days ago. The seller said the remote worked, but he lost the round battery cover on the back side and never replaced it. This is a separate HONDA remote, not attached to the key like the newer ones. I went to Honda yesterday, and they gave me a new cover and a battery. This is the older style remote, with Lock/Unlock/Panic buttons. I can try and disconnect the battery and see if that makes a difference, thanks!
@@sbrave I've seen these older Honda systems be a little picky. I hope the reboot will help. Sometimes it is all about timing on these.... too fast or too slow and the system does not like it. I hope you can get it working.
@@carandtruckremotes Thanks! Maybe I was doing it too slow. Yes, would be nice to be able to have a remote in the modern day, lol, esp since only the drivers door has key access.
2003 Tacoma . thank you for the step by step. I think they sold me the wrong transponder because once I hit the step where I have to press on both lock& unlock then lock, nothing happens. I tried rewrite mode since "add" didn't seem to work. I also programmed my F150 key fob and those work fine. So im going to remove the battery for 5 to 10 minutes to see if that resets anything.

I admit, I'm sometimes skeptical. This video seemed too easy. I bought 2 fobs off Amazon, watched the video, then took the laptop with me and sat in the vehicle and had them both programmed in less than 10 minutes. Nice job on video. Clear and concise. Thanks!!!!
Thank you, just want to be sure does this method program the whole key fob as a master key... for doors, security and ignition? understanding that the blank key has to be cut of course.
I got two toyota keys similar to rav4 2010 key, although the rav went into programming mode but the key failed to work. The key has 4 buttons instead of 3, it was maybe on a camry. Any ideas.
